If you are not aware, this is z/OS running on x86 for dev/test work. Anyone doing this in the real world? We've got architects in the corporation that head about this, and want to discuss it. I just don't know enough about it to know if it's a big deal, or a breadbox with regards to building and supporting.
My concerns: - are how to support - is it an identical image of standard lpars on Z? - security - etc, etc, etc. I did a few searches on google looking for a past SHARE presentation for a 10,000' view. To my uneducated self, it sounds like an easy way for management to defer mainframe cpu costs, but at a huge support cost. Am I wrong? _________________________________________________________________ Dave Jousma Manager Mainframe Engineering, Assistant Vice President david.jou...@53.com 1830 East Paris, Grand Rapids, MI 49546 MD RSCB2H p 616.653.8429 f 616.653.2717 This e-mail transmission contains information that is confidential and may be privileged.
